The 8th fence, strong and tall, An impenetrable wall, Where we find solace and peace, A retreat from chaos, a sweet release. Behind its shelter, we can find, A sanctuary for heart and mind.

Burning orb, peek your wonder, Golden rays, ablaze with thunder. Paint the sky in hues divine, Whisper secrets, ancient and fine. Dancing light, ignite our dreams, In your glow, the world redeems. #vss365 #vsspoem

Some people today had a good one, Basking in joy under the golden sun. But for others, their lives were torn, Heartache and sorrow, a soul forlorn. In this world's tapestry, contrasting art, Where fortunes differ, emotions depart. #vss365

April Fool's Day, a time for jest, Pranks and mischief put to the test. Laughter echoes, secrets in the air, Subterfuge woven with playful care. Mirth abounds, as tricks unfold, April's fools, their stories bold. #AprilFoolsDay #April1st #vss365 #AprilFool

Welcome back, dear Tipperary Pub, old friend, Where Irish whiskey and Guinness never end. The doors swing wide, a warm embrace, To the mirthful echoes of laughter and grace. Visit all, savor the craic and cheer, Sláinte to the return, a time we hold dear. Time Out London #vss365

In real time, there’s no perfection, there is life, there are loves, there can be devotion, tribulation, inner feeling, anxiety, struggles, passion, friendship, want, desire, connection, happiness, a line to tread, a feeling or feelings to feel, to walk next to, sometimes embrace

In the night, the UK stayed awake, #NorthernLights their hearts did ache. They gazed above, with hopeful sights, But alas, no #AuroraBoreal lights. Morning came, fatigue conspired, They woke up tired, dreams uninspired. #vss365 #vss

In Ireland's embrace, the greenery gleams, Whispering tales of ancient dreams, Where memories dance on emerald shores, A symphony of history forevermore. Through verdant landscapes, my heart finds peace, Ireland's beauty, a timeless masterpiece.

In utopia's realm, a blissful caress, Where worries dissolve, and troubles regress, A symphony of harmony graces the air, Love and compassion, the world's tender care. In perfect balance, dreams take flight, Utopia's embrace, an eternal delight.

In lands of black lava's constant flow, Amidst the beauty, cacti grow. Their splendor, a captivating sight, A distraction from the fiery might. Nature's artistry on vibrant display, In this land where wonders hold sway.

This is my happy place, back on the grass, sun shining, balls ripped to the outfield, catching in my glove on the run, softball season has begun. A new season, friends and team, at my age I’m back living the dream. Bliss. 🥎

In Brodie's prime, where wisdom doth unfold, A pensive heart doth guide the young and bold. In Downton's halls, she reigns with regal grace, With wit like arrows, she doth time embrace. In Potter's realm, enchantment she bestows, Maggie, in art's sweet light she glows.

In the tent where bakers rise and shine, Loaves of bread, each crumb divine. With mustard custard, a twist so bold, Flavours dance, stories unfold. Whisks and laughter fill the air, In Great British Bake-Off magic, we all share. #GBBO #mustardcustard

Gunpowder parliament monarchy plot, one man caught tortured spilled the lot, an Act of Thanksgiving to mark #GuyFawkesNight came to be, from 1606 by the King’s Royal Decree. Guido’s fate was to be hung drawn & quartered, treason for his 5 November 1605 would never be tolerated.

USA fuckwits!

The drink's too strong, the gaze too near, A rising panic, sharp and clear. "Angela," speak, a simple word, The bartender's ear, instantly heard. They'll create a space, a quick reprieve, And help you safely, then you leave. #askforangela
